What makes the Redwall Limestone a unique and important stratigraphic unit in the Grand Canyon? This is one of the questions asked and answered in this guide to the Redwall. Written to assist guides in describing the geology of Grand Canyon, this colorful product should be of use to professional geologists, geophiles and people generally interested in geology. Jargon is minimized and the colorful illustrations provide a framework for understanding the underlying geologic concepts.

This is an informal "poster" publication and has not been subjected to the same scrutiny as that of a formal publication of the Arizona Geological Survey.
